If I had a girl I should say to her, ‘Marry for love if you can, it won’t last, but it is a very interesting experience and makes a good beginning in life. Later on, when you marry for money, for heaven’s sake let it be big money. There are no other possible reasons for marrying at all.’
- Nancy Mitford, Christmas Pudding

Il y a quelque chose de plus haut que l'orgueil, et de plus noble que la vanité, c'est la modestie, et quelque chose de plus rare que la modestie, c'est la simplicité.

Architects have to dream, we have to search for our Atlantises, to be explorers, adventurers, and yet to build responsibly and well. If you have total freedom, then you are in trouble. It’s much better when you have some obligation, some discipline, some rules. When you have no rules, then you start to build your own rules.
- Renzo Piano
